    Great Information on Awesome Hikes and Preparation
    Really enjoy these podcast! Marcus does a great job finding interesting hikes and experienced guides to share their knowledge of their trips/hike and their experience. I plan to use information learned both to tweak my approach to hiking and to go to some cool places! Good amount of information packed into a relatively short amount of time. I’m a fan.
